1 - Safety first. If you have to pick between two decisions, always pick the safer one. You're so much more valuable alive than dead.
1a - Warp-in at your jamming optimals (should be around 70km), but like I said before, safety first, if you're against Drakes you may want to consider getting a range script and jamming out from 100km+. You're still like... 60% effective from that range or so, which is still good. (I've jammed falcons from that range)
1b - Always ask your FC or the bait or whoever you're warping to how close they are from the enemy, always. Adjust your warp-in accordingly.
1c - Always be aligned to something, always, on at least 1/4 speed.
1d - You need to be able to manage range and keep all enemies at 70km range minimum, pulse MWD accordingly. Keep an eye on enemy velocity/angular velocity, call out any light tackle that's closing in on you fast to your support rifters.
1e - If you are getting shot at, leave immediately, unless it's drones and someone's in trouble. If you're getting shot at, you're doing something wrong, fix it: warp out and warp back in at a new farther range (drone range is a little less than 70km for the most part). Even under drone fire, you'll last less than a minute (and that minute flies by fast). (Make sure you communicate with your FC immediately as soon as you begin taking fire and that you plan to leave and re-enter)

2 - Primaries for you are ECM, Recon, BS, then BC in that order. Logis are highly situational. In all cases, confirm with FC first. Make sure you are maximizing your racial jamming strength. But always be ready to focus and heat all your jammers to rescue someone.
2a - Start the fight with heat. I don't know if this is right or not, but I've found I can make heat last a lot, lot longer if I heat every other cycle every other mod. Around 70% heat dmg, I turn it off and save it for emergencies like rescuing someone.
2b - It's especially important that you get the first strike in an ECM vs ECM battle. Whoever jams first has the advantage of always being the first jammer every successive cycle, since there's that several second targeting delay for the jammee. And then they basically have no choice but to warp out and warp back in to break your lock, and then you start all over again with a race of who can jam first. Don't forget, always start the fight with heat.
2c - Vs. Falcon. You'll run into this situation a lot, where you're BB vs Falcon. You have a bit of an optimal range advantage, so make sure you're jamming from like 85k out or so, this will reduce his jamming strength considerably with little impact on your own. Also, Falcon is definitely a top priority target for you, since he has 50-75% more jamming power than you -- so even if you tie up all your jammers taking him out, that's a worthwhile trade.
2d - Learn your jamming probabilities against every single ship out there. This will help so much in helping you figure out your primaries, as well as advicing the FC how many ships you can disable at a certain percentage. Also, even more important, if you somehow end up by yourself next to a single target, you will know if you can permajam him or not -- and you will then be able to know if you can attempt to bump him to prevent him from aligning & warping out, as a bootleg way of tackling him.

3 - Fits: Standard is 3 AML, Salvager, 4 jammers (1 of each racial), LSE, MWD, 2x ECM strength lows, 2x range rigs and 1x ECM strength rig.
3a - Personally, I prefer replacing the LSE with a 5th jammer (either another Minnie or Caldari), and replacing a low with armor buffer. The manueverability and speed penality is about 10%, but I consider it worth it. Align time and max speed is never an issue with me since I'm always pre-aligned and running away from something is impossible no matter what anyway.
3b - Also, I like bringing defender missiles to load into my AMLs for extra defense against missiles. I think they only hit 1 missle out of every salvo, so I guess that's usually around 17%? But anything helps, especially if you're dealing with long range tengus that can ordinarily 2 shot you.
3c - Another option is to replace one of the lows with a range script and jam out from 120-135km, which is super obnoxious to your enemies =P But you'll be operating at a significantly reduced jamming strength, around 50%.

Hope this helps. If there's one thing I could emphasize and that I think takes the most skill and time to learn is situational awareness. Once you learn how to manage distance of multiple ships at once and learn what to align to in order to achieve that kiting position, you're golden. But that definitely takes time and experience to learn, probably a month or two or so.
